Installing a TMG tpl45 10k symmetrical 2 post lift in my garage. Unfortunately the bay is only 23' deep. I will be lifting mostly cars and full size suv's occasionally.
In my last garage at my old house I installed a asymmetrical lift in a 19' deep bay positioned 10.5' off the shop door with a lot of planning and it worked out great for my old cars, since I had room in the front for engine work and very little at the rear.
I'm hoping somebody with a symmetrical lift and a full aize suv such as a yukon xl, suburban, expedition or excursion can throw it on their lift and do some measurements for me.. barely a 1 beer job! I'd love to know the measurement from the centre of post to front of vehicle and centre of post to rear of vehicle. A full size crew cab pickup would work asell.
My rough thought is to mount it approximately 10' from the door but I haven't actually had time to move the vehicles around and take measurements.
Any input? Bolting this thing down tomorrow! Thanks
